Need some ideas for a new logo (I have no creative side)

Hello all,

Sequence Hosting is starting to grow now and I decided it's time to replace my logo (my poor attempt at Photoshop

) and pay someone to create something unique.

As more heads are better than one I’m wondering if anyone has any ideas. Or suggestions of what will look good. My create side with graphics is pretty bad so I currently have no ideas

My current logo can be seen at the top left of my website.

Thanks everyone.

Sequencehosting,

Good to hear that your site is doing well.

I honestly like your current logo. The image gets cut off at the bottom on my brower (IE8) but I think it is nice.

Here is a great designer who does excellent work that I know personally: http://jakepalmer.net/

My best to you and your contined success.

Thanks for your reply and following me on Twitter, I followed you back

Yeah the reason it gets cut of is because the logo was used on my old layout that only had 92px height space. So I had to cut off some of the logo. Now I have much more space to use, I did add the full logo to see what it looked like but it was much worse. A bigger reason why I'm looking to buy a logo is because the icon you see to the left of the logo was part of a free logo template (Originally red). So there must be hundreds of other sites using a version of this logo.

Thanks for the link I will check them out now.

Thank you I took a look at those websites and they have some nice logos.

It's so hard to come up with something. I wish I choose a brand able domain name

Thank you. I will be outsourcing the new logo once I have at least a couple of ideas.
